Mams Taylor produced and wrote “United For Neda” after he saw video footage of the young demonstrator shot and killed by the Basji during the Iranian crackdown in June. He brought together Iran’s most elite entertainers, poets, thinkers, actors and singers in one harmonious voice pleading for freedom, featuring three of Iran’s most iconic singers Dariush, Sattar and Morteza. If you believe in human rights for Iran and for the world, download the song and share it with your friends. (Vimeo)

About Me

This blog will deal primarily with Irish and International political issues. I have long believed that the greater the diversity of comment the stronger our democracy. On occasions analysis may be quite trenchant. I also intend to range over diverse cultural strands of Irish and world society. Sports such as Hurling and Rugby Union -primarily but not exclusively-will feature from time to time.
Other issues -that take my fancy- will surface.
